Hello Golfers,

Well, I was going to say Happy New Year but it’s certainly started off with a whimper rather than a bang!

So we enter lockdown once again but sadly in Tier 5. Inevitably, this means we have to close our Pro Shop doors once again to all of you. However never fear, we are still able to sell golf equipment off the premises in a Click & Collect form.

In order to do this, you would need to contact us through our website. We would then contact you to collect payment and again we will contact you when your item has arrived. We can either arrange local delivery of your goods or you can liaise a suitable time to meet and collect from outside the pro shop but sadly not inside as this is not permitted.

The New Year’s Cocktail party on zoom went well and was certainly a great alternative as it could not take place as it normally does. We welcome new vice-captain Nigel Pomphrey and we’re excited to work with him.

Good luck to 2021 Club Captain Greg, Ladies Captain Alyson, Seniors' Captain Hugo and Junior Captain Harry in their new roles. I'm very positive that once we get to the Spring we will be able to enjoy a better year than the last and be able to put 2020 behind us.

The tickets for our annual Pro Shop draw was drawn by Ladies’ Captain Alyson Matthews (thanks Alyson!). The winner of the first prize was Steve Clarke, who took home a new Powakaddy lithium electric trolley. Well done Steve!

The second place prize was a playing lesson which was won by Andy Preisner; Andy Smith won the Motocaddy Cart Bag and Peter J Taylor (there are two Peter Taylors, hence the 'J') won a cashmere Glenmuir crested-jumper.

For members who didn't manage to watch the event on Zoom on New Years Day, I won't be repeating the rude joke!

From myself, Caren, Andy and Scott, we do want to reiterate our huge thank you to all of you for such amazing support and we wish you a very Happy New Year! On this note, we hope you all stay safe and if you need anything please get in contact.

Caren, Paul, Andy & Scott

Enjoy the read!

Golf on Tour

A look ahead at what's to come...

2020 was a year like no other, both in golf and in the world as a whole. However, with 2021 now upon us, let’s take a look at some of the events for us golf fans to get excited about this year…

Firstly, The Masters returns to its April date, just five months on from Dustin Johnson’s record-breaking win back in November. This is followed by three more Majors in the men's game and five in the women's, including the one that got away in 2020: The Open Championship!

To top it all off, we have both the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup in the same month - September. Let’s hope Team Europe are partying twice this September! Oh, and let's not forget about the Olympics!

We hope you’re just as excited about golf in 2021, and if you’re itching to play your part then feel free to get in touch with any questions via the button below.

Something to work towards

Come rain or shine, golfers never need an excuse to dust off the cobwebs and get onto the course. So, with lots of golf to (hopefully) look forward to in 2021, there's no better time to conjure up some golf-based resolutions for the year ahead.

Making resolutions

You may have decided you’d like to reduce the number of three-putts you have each round (don't we all!) or to get less frustrated when you hit a bad shot. Whatever your resolutions are, we're here to help in any way possible.

How we can help

I think we can all agree that golf is much more fun when you’re playing well. So, reply to this email with your number one resolution for the year ahead and let's see if we can make it happen together!

Walking in a winter wonderland

Long walks are as much a part of the festive season as eating too much turkey and dozing on the sofa afterwards. Greg Norman once said ‘Happiness is a long walk with a putter’. Now, it would be a little odd to take your putter on a festive walk, but one thing you'll definitely need is a good jumper!

Glenmuir pullovers - available through us

Well, whether you’re on or off the golf course, that walk is a lot less enjoyable if you’re caught out in the wind and rain. That’s why it is so important to have a layering piece that really gets the job done.

Glenmuir’s Arran pullover does exactly that, and with a flourish; giving you complete protection, a stylish look and freedom of movement in your swing. Now that’s happiness, Mr Norman.

Video of the Week

Every good round of golf requires a bit of luck, be it a favourable bounce around the greens or a preferable lie off the fairway. Sometimes it is far more extreme, as this highlight reel from the European Tour showcases. Enjoy.

We hope you enjoyed this edition of our newsletter. If you need any help or advice please contact one of us in the shop or reply to this newsletter. We'll be delighted to help. Paul and the golf team.
